Current regional smoke forecast context
Loading the current smoke forecast issuance…
Open province smoke forecast →Track official wildfire activity and smoke across Abitibi-Témiscamingue, including Rouyn-Noranda, Val-d'Or, forest and mining corridors, and nearby northern communities.
Use the regional view to understand official incident geography across multiple communities, then compare forecast smoke and measured AQHI before drawing conclusions about local air quality.
This region uses an approximate FireRadar boundary and wildfire locations published by the source. It is not an emergency boundary, predicted spread area or municipal boundary.

Checking the latest official ECCC FireWork forecast status. Model issuance, forecast coverage and source status will appear when confirmed. Missing forecast data does not mean the air is clear.
Coverage: This is a regional forecast, not a local measurement. Smoke conditions can vary across Abitibi-Témiscamingue.
View official source →Source and FireRadar check times may differ. Page preparation is separate from this live status check.
Checking the latest official ECCC AQHI observation. The value, reporting location and observation time will appear when confirmed. Missing data does not mean the air is clean or the health risk is low.
Open the AQHI observation map →The dashed outline is FireRadar's curated regional counting extent. Incident points, smoke forecasts, and AQHI observations are separate datasets and should not be interpreted as evacuation boundaries or fire-spread predictions. FireRadar regional extents may overlap near transition areas. Regional totals are useful local summaries and must not be added together to produce a province total.

Stations can be far from rural or remote parts of a region. The nearest observation may not represent conditions everywhere inside the regional boundary.
Open province air-quality map →Abitibi-Témiscamingue combines large boreal and mixed-forest areas, lakes, mining and forestry operations, rural properties, Indigenous communities, and long highway connections. Wildfire and smoke can affect multiple population centres and industrial areas at once, so a regional map provides useful context between local pages and the province-wide Quebec view.

Use FireRadar's ECCC FireWork smoke forecast to see modelled smoke movement across and beyond Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Forecast smoke is not proof that a nearby wildfire is the source of local smoke.
AQHI and observed PM2.5 provide measured air-quality context and remain distinct from FireWork forecast smoke. Station coverage varies across a region, especially in rural and remote areas.
Quebec air quality map →Official incident information comes from SOPFEU. FireRadar uses consistent display labels for public status and cause terms while leaving missing fields unavailable.
FireRadar does not issue evacuation orders, emergency notices, road closures, or fire-spread predictions. Follow provincial, municipal, Indigenous, and emergency authorities for current instructions.
